The Functional Foodini Machine



There is a new technology machine, which lets your print can able to eat, trustworthy to Digital Marketing Agency reported.

The “Foodini,” as it's called, isn't too different from a regular 3D printer, but instead of printing with plastics, it deploys edible ingredients squeezed out of stainless steel capsules:

“It's the same technology,” says Lynette Kucsma, co-founder of Natural Machines, “but with plastics there's just one melting point, whereas with food it's different temperatures, consistencies and textures. Also, gravity works a little bit against us, as food doesn't hold the shape as well as plastic”.

“In essence, this is a mini food manufacturing plant shrunk down to the size of an oven,” Kucsma said, pointing out that at least in the initial stage the printer will be targeted mostly at professional kitchen users, with a consumer version to follow, at a projected retail price of around $1,000.
